President Joe Biden attended the graduation ceremony at Morehouse College in Atlanta over the weekend. During his speech, he focused on criticizing Georgia’s election laws and making unfounded claims about Donald Trump and his supporters. Some students and faculty members at Morehouse College were not happy to see Biden there due to his handling of the Israel-Hamas conflict.

As the valedictorian called for a ceasefire in Gaza during his speech, Biden applauded in agreement. This gesture may not come as a surprise considering Biden’s previous statements advocating for a ceasefire in the region. He emphasized the need for immediate action to stop the violence and provide aid to those affected by the conflict.
In recent months, Biden has been trying to regain support from the anti-Israel faction of his party, possibly in an effort to secure votes in upcoming elections. However, his attempts to intervene in the Israel-Hamas conflict have not always been successful, with a recent bluff about intelligence on Hamas leaders causing controversy.
It is important for leaders to approach international conflicts with wisdom and caution. While calls for peace are admirable, it is crucial to ensure that actions taken truly benefit the innocent civilians caught in the middle of conflicts like the one between Israel and Hamas. The United States should prioritize diplomacy and effective strategies in addressing global crises.
